Compressor identification
The Quincyies I know all have unique unloader cylinders (valves?)
on top of the heads. This is not like any Quincy I know about.
The reason to go there would be to hopefully see one more
compressor guru.

A young fella at work brought in a compressor head that he
picked up out of the junk. He wants advice and help on fixing.
Had him take a cylinder and a reed plate down to a local
compressor repair shop. "Boy, that sure is a heavy duty
compressor, but I've never seen anything like it." Same at
another one. I've not gone out to the Quincy source, yet.
I'm pretty sure it is not a Quincy, all the ones I've seen use
cast iron disc valves that last forever. That makes it easy to
install an unloader, too.
